i guess while im asking the above question, i guess i can throw in my own smarts on tippmann upgrades. ive used alot of barrels, from the terminator, flatline, evil drivers, and hammerheads.
terminators are like any other cheap barrel...not good, flatlines arent for me cuz i dont like hop-up (where the ball curves back up...Warsensors are good though, i just dont like the flatlines cuz when you need to fire fast, a ball will occasionally break cuz of the violence of the flatlines means of putting that curve on the ball) if u want a medium cost but still plenty effective barrel, go for an evil driver barrel, the small bore size balls work the best with it. if u want a great barrel, get a hammerhead, personally i hvae a hammerhead 14" torpedo series barrel, not only is it accurate 99% of the time, if a ball breaks, just shoot it three times and it has just cleaned itself out. its also reverse ported which makes it super quiet literally to the point your gun is making the sound and not the POP u hear out of other barrels, i got the second to last ball sizer and its worked for all the balls ive used.
hammerhead barrels are expensive, but incredible for those go-get-em paintballers Edited by Ace_Of_Spades - 09 January 2008 at 6:05pm |

Barrels: While I am not an expert on the subject I have found quite a good amount of info on certain barrels. For woodsball the flatline is great. It gets good distance and can hold quite a few people down. The bad part is that any little bit of wind makes the ball fly off target. Also if they are far enough away they can literally watch your paintballs flying and step out of the way. Also the interior of the barrel is textured so if it starts to become smoothe you have to get the interior of the barrel refinished. There are definetely pros and cons to this barrel and I would not recommend it for a sniper but heavy gunners pick one up and hold them down. Asfar as accuracy I have had great results from the J&J barrel kit. It has different bore size backs and you can getfronts in different lengths from 8"-16" (total length). It is very accurate and I have heard the same about the Smart Parts Freak Kit.
I used to have a GTA "sniper" ( and I use the term sniper very loosely) barrel. All it really did was chop up paint and fly off target. I wouldnt recommend this barrel at all personally. Edited by thejudge - 25 April 2007 at 1:46pm |

These are a few mods I have done to my Evolution Loader. Please note that some of them require alteration to the loader than cannot be reversed (except for buying a new piece of plastic) and I am not responsible if you screw it up.
The Force Feed Mod Something that I have seen advertised for eggs is that they are force feed hoppers. This is not entirely correct. Due to the nature of the design, there is absolutely nothing preventing balls from endlessly spinning around the track and not going into the neck. This solves that. This is a picture of what a stock tray looks like. To see what I am explaining for yourself, take your egg, put 6 balls in the tray. Make sure none of them fall into the neck while you put them in. Tilt your egg at any angle greater than 0 degrees (meaning level, tilting backwards), and you will observe the balls do not fall into the neck. ![]() Now, what this mod does is block the balls from continuing around the track. I simple hot glued the second smallest k'nex shaft immediately to the left of the neck, as close to the impeller as I could, pointing strait towards the center of the impeller. Now when the ball hits the piece, it will follow it right into the feed neck. ![]() Now you can tilt your egg anywhere from 0 to (theoretically) 89 degrees and the balls will be forced into the feed neck. I cannot give an exact BPS feed increase with this mod, but I can guaruntee you will see one. I estimate at least 5 bps increase. Its one of the cheapest mods too. |

hi rhino, i havea RT and Cyclone, in my 98c,with a flat line barrel, how can make the flat line more accuraci, because the ball goes every were and to to the enemy. thx |

This is a quick tutorial on modifying the battery contacts on an evo hopper. If you have any questions feel free to pm me. I may update this post with additional evo info from time to time. Take apart the evo leaving the internals in the left half. This keeps the wires in their proper place. Pull the battery contacts off the circut board and drill a small hole in each of them. You need to make sure the holes line up with the center of the positive and negative contacts on a 9 volt battery. This material is very hard and may require a few drill bits. You can see how small the screw and nut are in the picture above. Then attach 2 positive and 2 negative battery contacts to each contact from the hopper and grind down the excess thread. You need to bend the contacts on the hopper so they are relatively flat. Put it back together and the batteries no longer rely on pressure from the battery door to maintain contact. The batteries completely clear the door. You can get the contacts at Radio shack or bust apart a 9 volt battery. The contacts on the batteries seem to be higher quality. The rivets need to be ground off on the under side of the contacts. |

I have a 15 Inch barrel and its a little more accurate than a 14 I think but doesnt slow the paintball as much as a 16
Those people at WarpedSportz are smart |

^^^^Noice. I personally like 14's. They are a comprimise. Ive used 12's and 14's. The 14 have a smaller shot grouping at the same velocity.

Hey, I stole this from tyler t over at PCOG. It's a good explaination that should put the longer barrel conflict to rest.
Length is a common missconception. People think that a longer barrel will be more accurate, that is not correct. Longer barrels help on firearms because the longer the barrel the higher the velocity (FPS) the bullet travels. In painbtall no matter what the barrel length we adjust the velocity to 300 FPS (feet per second). For a good paintball barrel length you just need enough lenth for the gas to expand and get the ball going 300 fps. Ideal length is 8-12 inches. Anything over around 12 inches will make a drop in your FPS (compared to a 8-12 inch barrel) and require you to turn your velocity up (requiring more air). A longer barrel also increases the chances of a ball breaking in the barrel. A barrel shorter than around 8 inches will require more gas also because by the time the ball leaves the barrel the gas wont have had enough time to expand behind it, this requires you to turn up your velocity (using more air). It also increases the chances of breaking a ball because you have to have more air hitting the ball at once to make up for the lack of time for the gas to expand in the barrel so the intial harder "smack" could break balls. |

daveb333 said: You said "A longer barrel will not increase accuracy." This is a BS statement. If this was true, why would tippmann themselves make a 12", 14" and 16" barrel if they all did the same thing????
daveb333, You have no clue what he is talking about! on a barrel kit there is a front and back section and they join together so you can have one barrel kit and match size with any paint size (remember about different paint sizes? lol). he is refering to the length of the back portion in relation to the front. And as for your idea that a longer barrel will impart more momentum on the ball,WOW, the momentum of the ball is a factor of velocity of the ball times mass of the ball divided by drag and friction. every ball of the same mass traveling at the same velocity will have the exact same parrabolic arc regardless of barrel length. The only way you can get more distance from a barrel is if it imparts backspin on the ball thus counter acting the effects of gravity and flatening out the parabolic arc just like a golf ball. With a conventional barrel the only way to flaten the parabolic arc is to increase one of the variables namely velocity but then you will be shooting faster then is safe and you will hurt people. For somone who has such a weak grasp of the sport and the physics behind it you sure like to mouth off and tell everyone how dumb they are and how you are the captain of your high school team. You need to stop being so rude to people so i can stop being rude to you. |

^ Wrong place to post!! And you are WRONG. Tippmann sells barrels in different lenghs because some people like longer/shorter barrels. Its all depends on the player. YOU ARE WRONG!!!
